The Host by Stephenie Meyer
In a future where Earth has been colonized by a parasitic alien species that takes over human minds while leaving their bodies intact, a young woman named Melanie Stryder fights to retain control of her consciousness. When an alien soul named Wanderer is implanted into Melanie's body, Melanie's strong emotions and memories of her loved ones, particularly her brother and her partner Jared, begin to influence Wanderer. As the two form an unexpected alliance, they embark on a journey to find Melanie's family and join the human resistance, exploring themes of identity, love, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of overwhelming odds.
